Description

The TRAPPC2 gene encodes a subunit of the trafficking protein particle (TRAPP) complex, which is involved in vesicle transport from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus. Mutations in this gene cause spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda (SEDT), an X-linked skeletal disorder characterized by short stature and joint abnormalities.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda (SEDT) Loss of TRAPPC2 function disrupts ER-to-Golgi transport, impairing chondrocyte function and matrix deposition. OMIM #313400; multiple reports of nonsense, missense, and splice-site mutations in affected families.

Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.2T>C (p.Met1Thr) Missense Rare Loss of start codon, likely loss of function
c.155G>A (p.Arg52His) Missense Rare Impaired TRAPP complex assembly
c.325+1G>A Splice site Rare Exon skipping, frameshift, loss of function
Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Most SEDT-associated mutations lead to loss of TRAPPC2 function, disrupting vesicle trafficking.

Gain of Function (GOF)

Not reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

Not reported; X-linked recessive inheritance.

Gene Ontology (GO)

• ER to Golgi vesicle-mediated transport • TRAPP complex
• vesicle tethering • Golgi organization
• protein transport

Pathways

ER-to-Golgi vesicle transport
TRAPP complex pathway

Protein Summary

TRAPPC2 is a 140-amino-acid protein that forms part of the TRAPP complex, which tethers vesicles to the Golgi membrane. It is highly conserved and essential for proper intracellular trafficking. Loss of function leads to skeletal dysplasia.
